The Cherokee National Forest is divided into northern and southern sections by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The 650,000-acre forest is the largest tract of public land in Tennessee and adjoins other national forests in Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia. The forest is home to 30 developed campgrounds and numerous picnic areas, over 700 miles of trails, seven whitewater rivers, two Forest Service scenic byways where you can enjoy a scenic drive through the mountains, the pursuit of wildlife, the thrill of whitewater, a night under the stars, or solitude on a backcountry trail. Hundreds of miles of lake shoreline and water await the fisherman, boating enthusiast, skier, and nature lover. South Holston Lake, a Tennessee Valley Authority reservoir covering 7,580 acres, is considered one of the top two lakes in Tennessee and among the best in the Southeast for smallmouth bass fishing and also is well known as a fly fisherman’s paradise. The lake also provides many other recreational opportunities for residents, with 60% of its shoreline bordered by the Cherokee National Forest. Bristol is known for NASCAR as it is home to one of the world’s greatest and most popular racetracks. Bristol Motor Speedway, which seats in excess of 150,000, hosts NASCAR Sprint Cup events in April and August and both draw fans from all 50 states and more than a dozen countries. Music also gives Bristol a universal appeal as the city holds the honor of being named the Birthplace of Country Music by U.S. Congress in 1998. In 1927, the legendary Bristol Sessions took place in the downtown area, giving birth to the “Big Bang” of modern country music with the likes of The Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers taking part in the historic occasion. The Twin Cities boast numerous parks, golf courses, spectacular caverns to go along with plenty of great restaurants – many of which are locally owned and operated – and wonderful shopping opportunities. Bristol is also rich in theater and arts and is home to the historic Paramount Center for the Arts, as well as Theatre Bristol.

Just in case there's anyone that doesn't know about how impactful my Partner Michele Scheve is to those she comes in contact with, here are a few words shared by members of the community, from a recent profile done by ABC News Channel 13, WLOS... "She’s a pillar of this scene, and she’s like a comedy mom to all of us. She’s generous with her support, despite needing help herself. She’s always helping others. She checks in on us no matter how busy she is, and always encourages us because she genuinely wants every one of us to succeed. Her boundless optimism and belief in others inspires me to be more like her. She’s the kind of person who lifts others up just by being who she is. I won’t be okay if she isn’t okay." - Asheville comedian Jess Cooley "Whether it’s a comedy show or advocating local music on air, Michele is dedicated to supporting the vibrant arts community we have here in Asheville. Her energy and warm presence is inviting and speaks to the family atmosphere within the creative community.” - Andrew Scotchie (Andrew Scotchie & the River Rats/The Orange Peel/Rabbit Rabbit) "I’ve never met anyone so selflessly dedicated to showcasing the talents of others, whether it’s music or art or comedy. She and her partner Matt are pillars of the creative community and I know that bands like mine only benefit from being in her orbit. She is a fan of the highest caliber, and sets the bar for support. The world is only made better by the presence of people like her." - Robby from Krave Amiko "She’s spent countless hours promoting local artists, producing incredible shows, and helping unify Asheville’s creative community; making it feel simultaneously special and accessible. Michele’s tenacity in both her professional and personal life is an inspiration and I’m proud to count her among my chosen family. All of Asheville is lucky to have her." - Morgan Bost, Asheville comic, Columnist for Mountain XPress I get asked, or commented to, all the time about what makes Michele tick and how she remains so impactful in so many people's lives, while also navigating such overwhelming medical challenges. Rather than just say what I think, I convinced her to sit down and let me "Barbara Wa-Wa" her on the radio, for all to hear - in her own words. - Matt "Get in the moment. The right path feels easy." - Michele Scheve, Producer, Broadcaster, Artist. Be sure to visit BizRadio.US to discover hundreds more engaging conversations, local events and more. Support the show
